SPIRIT OF THE PUBLIC JOURNALS " This is a d— bad world ; " quoth Sir Peter Teazle, " and the fewer we praise in it the better." If so, assuredly the Melbou rne C a bi net i s not the best possible specimen' of this " bad world," and the dangerous office of praise bestowing eught to be exercised in its favour with more than ordinary caution. We are led into this train of thinking by a contrite sense of the infirmity of our own nature, and of th e m i sc hi evous i n d u l gence o f our h a bit ua l kindness towards a particular member of the Cabinet, which we have given way to within these few last days. We have panegyrized Lord Viscount Palmerston as author and negotiator of the recent Turkish treaty—an offence against rtuth and justice for which, as it would now appear, we ought humbly to ask pardon of our countrymen, seeing that the said treaty wasin no sense of the word Lord Palmerston's, but brought to maturity in spite of his intrigues, and of the vicarious resistance of his tool Lord Ponsonby, of the disinterested obstinacy of a certain President of the Board of Trade, and of a period of three years of stupid indif ference to the public interests, alternating with duplicity and vaccillation. The letter of " A Levant Merchant" in this day's Times is one to which we invite the calm atten tion of our readers. It comes from a correspondent fa miliar with every branch of the subject whereon he addresses us ; and, if those facts be true of which he challenges the re:futation, may be ascribed to the active energy of Mr. Urquhart, to the Turkish patriotism and spirit of Redschid Pasha, to the noble and paternal solicitude of his late Majesty William the Fourth for the welfare of his dominions, but in no degree and under no pretence to the sagacity, the zeal, the integrity, or statesmanship of Lord Palmerston, whom we in our in noce nc e believ e d until now to have prepared it, and to have decided on resolutely carrying it into execution before the eyes and in the teeth of Russia. Of course, when we point to the source of our present information, we absolve ourselves from the responsibility incurred by him with whom it ori ginates. He is known to us as being master of the whole question, embracing our relations with Turkey, Russia, Persia, and Central Asia. He has no apparent motive for deceiving us, or our readers. He brings forward as fact that which he must be an irretrievable fool as well as knave' to fabricate. It is on such grounds that we recommend his letter. From the statements of the " Levant Merchant" we collect, that in the year 18:34, Mr. Urquhart, after consulting many of our countr 3 - men domiciled in Turkey and engaged in commerce, found, what might have been expected, a disposition to take alarm at the prospect of opening a trade which had hitherto borne to them all the beneficial fruits of a mono poly, but that, in spite of the obstacles thus presented, he proposed it to the Turkish Government. On the first re commendation of the plan to that department of which Lord Palmerston was, and is still, the head, it was re ceived in the accustomed manner—that is, with contemp tuous apathy. Being turned over to the Board of Trade, the treatment it there met with, and the creditable motives for that treatment, we leave it to the author of the letter to exhibit. The cordial interest displayed by his gracious and much-lamented Majesty King William in the promo. tion of a diplomatic enterprise, which, if honestly followed up, must prove so conducive to the extension of British commerce, and to the defeat of Russia in her schemes of dominion over Turkey, is assigned by our Correspondent as one main cause to which we stand indebted for the ultimate adoption of the treaty. As to Lord Palmerston and his official puppet, the Ambassador at Constantinople—a miserablefai want for aught but evil—we must impute the supercilious derision with which the treaty and its objects wet e spoken of both here and in the Turkish capital, as a silly dream and impracticable chimera, until the powerful mind of Redschid Pasha, in co-operation with circumstances utterly unforeseen by our Foreign Minister, forced the signature upon them. It is here remarked that the project was made known to the Russian Government almost as soon as it was communicated to that of Turkey. One dis astrous fruit, therefore, of the delay in the adoption of the treaty, was the opportunity thus presented to Nicholas of gaining a start of two whole years for preparation before England began to move at all, and of thus providing means for the timely frustration of its most valuable objects. But the worst of all remains behind. When the news arrived, a week ago, that the Grand Seignor, under intimidation by Russia, had recalled his fleet, and dissolved its junction with that under Admiral Stopford, our readers will bear us out in the recol lection that we declared the fact to be impossible. Such indeed would have been the natural exclamation of any man is ho gave the British Government credit f or th e very slightest imaginable portion of integrity or common sense. Why, is it prima facie conceivable that Lord Pal merston would have signed a treaty urging the Sultan to a course of action in direct defiance of the will" of Russia and of the treaty of Unkiar 'Skelessi, without taking measures to maintain by force, if force should be necessary, those obligations common to both contracting parties, which, nevertheless, were not only of impracticable execution if undertaken by Turkey alone, but would be punished as so many crimes against Russian supremacy, if attempted with out the most energetic support by the naval power of Great Britain ? Is it, we say, conceivable that Lord Palmerston, or any other human being whose heart and soul had not abdicated all their better functions, would have laid such a trap for an unfortunate and dependent ally as to leaveher sub ject to thefatal consequences entailed upon her by the deser tion of a copartner in the same offence to a formidable and vindictive oppressor ? Yet so it is, unless the accounts, not of our correspondent, but of all persons acquainted with our position relative to Turkey, should prove unfounded. One and all the advices affirm that the British and Turkish squadrons have already separated ; that the ships of the Grand Seignor have returned home, that most dis graceful of all, the British Admiral has withdrawn to Malta ! although it was actually and expressly stipulated, as the condition on which England should be entitled to call for the. ratification of the Turkish treaty, that her fleet should enter the Dardanelles, and thus afford a pledge of her good faith in the prompt protection of her ally ! Now, it is on the authority of the " Levant Merchant" that we give coun tenance to the above statement. If it be correct, then must we acknowledge to be true that which, on the mere analogies and probabilities of human affairs, we charitably, not long since, pronounced to be " incredible. :" then must we allow that acts too atrocious and monstrous for belief in ordinary cases, and in relation to the average of man kind, cease to be surprising when affirmed of this ignomi nious Cabinet ; and that a herd of quadrupeds would have discovered more foresight and good faith than Queen Vic tone's favourite counsellors, who it appears can pay suc cessful court to her Majesty by sacrificing the welfare of her people and the honour and dignity of the British Crown.—Times. LAW INTELLIGENCE. COURT OF CHANCERY, Nov. 22. ROBERTS V. WILLIAMS. This was a bill filed by the next friend of a minor against the executors of a testator, who had by his will given a sum of 5001. to the infant when he attained the age of twenty-five, and appointed a Mr. Hughes as his trustee. The bill prayed that the executors be directed to set apart the sum of 5001. out of the testator's estate, and that the interest of that sum might be paid in the mean time to wards the support of the infant. The LORD CHANCELLOR was of opinion that interest could not be paid, and that the bill must be dismissed with costs. The minor's friend must for the present pay those costs, and get them repaid out of the legacy when it be came due. WEALE V. IRELAND. Mr. WAKEFIELD and Mr. PALMER appeared for a mo tion to stay proceedings in a suit for the administration of a testator's estate. The ground of the application was that the same objects could be effected by another suit which was being prosecuted by other plaintiffs against the same defendants. The LORD CHANCELLOR said it appeared that a refe rence had been taken under the first suit, and as there was no objection to that, the order to stay the second suit was a matter of course. With respect to the order to inspect the proceedings, the Court was always open to an applica tion if the plaintiffs did not prosecute the suit with satis factor diligence in the Master's office. The whole of the causes in the paper were disposed of at two o'clock. ROLLS' COURT, Nov. 22. TATE V. CLARK. The bill in this case was filed to establish the will of the testator in the cause, for the usual accounts of the real and personal estate, and that the rights of the several parties might be declared. —Judgment deferred. COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH, Nor. 22. THE QUEEN V. D'ISRAELI, In this case a rule had been obtained calling on the de fendant to show caus e why 3 criminal information sho u ld not be filed against him for publishing in the Morning Post a libel upon Mr. Charles A u stin, barrister-at-law M . Mr. Fector had been elected to represent the borough of aid stone. A petition was presented against the return of M and r. Fector. Mr. Austin led the case for the petiti in the course of his opening statement before the Com mittee, he described what he called the sysm prevailing with the Tory party at Maidstone, that when a voter was asked for his vote at one election, the prom ises of pecuni ary and other benefits made at the election last preceding were fulfilled. The Learned Counsel spoke of the alleged fact that some of the promises made at the election prece ding that which was then in contest had not been ful filled. Mr. D'lsraeli, who had been returned at the elec tion prior to that of Mr. Fector, imagined that he had b een personally charged with making promises which had not been fulfilled, and he wrote a letter to the Morning Post, in which he accused Mr. Austin of wilfully uttering statements which he knew he could not prove, and im puted such conduct to the privileges claimed by the bar, privileges to which he declared that he for one would never submit. The Court had granted and made absolute a rule for a criminal information. That information had been filed, and the defendant had suffered judgment by default. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL now moved for judgment to be pronounced, and in the first instance prayed that the affidavits of Mr. Austin and of Mr. Cockburn, his junior Counsel, before the Committee, might be read. These affidavits were accordingly read. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL felt the most sincere regret to see the defendant who was a Member of the House of Commons, before their Lordships, confessedly guilty of the offence which had been imputed to him, and that regret was the greater when he thought how easily the whole proceedings might have been avoided. The Learned Gentleman then proceeded to justify Mr. Austin, and went into a lengthened statement relative to the matter in question. Mr. DISRAELI did not put in any affidavit, but ad dressed the Court 'it considerable length on the subject of " that unfortunate letter which was sent to all the News papers," and out of which the present proceedings arose. He did not defend the language of the hastily written letter, but he must say that what Mr. Austin had stated of him could not be passed over without notice, and he now distinctly denied, so far as he was concerned, all knowledge of, or participation in, the system which had been spoken of. He assured their Lordships that such was the fact during the year-and-a-half in which he had been connected with the borough of Maidstone, in which time he had known of three elections. Mr. D'lsraeli con cluded by expressing his regret that in a moment of ex citement and misconception, he should have hurt the feel ings of Mr. Austin by publishing the letter in question. In the midst of a consultation on the part of their Lordships, The ATTORNEY-GENERAL said the apology at the close of Mr. D'lsraeli's address was quite satisfactory to Mr. Austin. Lord DENmAN—It was satisfactory that the matter should now rest where it was. VALIDITY OF THE MARQUIS OF BLANDFORD'S PRESENT MARRIAGE.-THE QUEEN U. GREGORY. Sir WILLIAM FOLLETT prayed that the rule in this case might be made absolute. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL rose and said that this was an application made by th e M arqu i s o f Bl an df or d f or a criminal information against the Satirist weekly newspaper, for alleged libels that had appeared in it. The Learned Counsel said that he should discharge his duty in the case by fully laying before the Court the state of the facts, which he thought would require no remarks or com ments to be made upon them. When he read them, he thought that their Lordships would think that the Mar quis of Blandford had not any right to make this appli cation, and that therefore the rule would be discharged. In effect, the Marquis in his affidavit set forth that he had never represented the lady in question, Mrs. Law, as his wife ; and that Lord Sunderland, his eldest son, made a similar statement, which, however, was quite immaterial. He would also call the attention of the Court to the supplemental affidavit made by Lord Bland ford, which stated that during the whole time that he co habited with Mrs. Law, and particularly while living with her in Baker-street, he always passed by the name and title of Marquis of Blandford, and that he never, during that time, passed by any other name or title whatever ; and, farther, he stated that during the whole of that period the lady was known by the name of Mrs. Law ; and that during the while he was in Scotland with her he passed by his own title. Having stated thus much as to the affida vits on the other side, he (the Attorney-General) would now proceed to those made in answer. The first was that of Susan Adelaide Law, who was stated by Lord Blandford to have consented to live with him as his mis tress, in consideration of a settlement made upon her. The affidavit stated that she had read the affidavits made on the other side, and went on to state the facts of the case. It set forth that in January, 1817, she first became acquainted with the Marquis of Blandford, who afterwards con stantly visited her at her father's residence ; that he ex pressed for deponent the most ardent affection ; and that he promised and avowed the determination of making her his wife, stating, however, that the marriage ceremony must be, from family reasons, performed in pri vate. This produced much discussion on the part of de ponent's mother and the Marquis ; the latter representing that he had a brother who was a clergyman in the country, to whom he would write to request him to perform the ce remony. The deponent was then about seventeen years of age, and gave her consent to the private celebration of the marriage, which took place March 16, 1817 ; it took place at the residence of her father, in Fludyer-street, in the pre sence of her mother, and sister Gertrude. The deponent distinctly denied any agreement on her part to cohabit with the said Marquis, as he had sworn, or that there was any deed of settlement by which in case of separation she should have 400/. a year, though there was a deed executed which she regarded as a marriage settlement. She added, that the marriage ceremony was performed by the brother of the Marquis according to the ritual of the Church of England, and that her mother entered a record of the fact in a Prayer book ; that the deponent lived with the Marquis at No. 42, Manchester -street, Manchester-squire, where they passed in the names of Captain and Mrs. Lawson ; that during the whole ,time she believed herself to be the wife of the Mar quis ; that they lived there eight or nine months, when they removed to Baker-street, where they resided several months; that Martin and his wife (who had been stated as valet and lady's maid, and who had represented that the Marquis always went by his name and title) did not go to reside at the house, Manchester-street for some months ; and that neither was present at the marriage ceremony, but deponent admitted that they having known the Marquis before, still continued to call him by his proper name and title ; that dur ing the residence of deponent in Manchester-street, she dis covered that the brother declared by the Marquis to be a clergyman of the Church of England was an officer in the army ; that on finding such to be the fact she informed her mother of it, who accused the Marquis of cruel and gross im position upon the deponent, which he admitted, and pro mised to take her into Scotland, there to acknowledge her to be his wife, according to the law of that country ; that the month of August was fixed as the time of de parture, as grouse shooting, it was alleged, would afford the best means of going there without exciting any suspi cion on the part of his family ; that they accordingly went to Scotland in August, taking their infant daughter with them ; that she went by mail to Boroughbridge, accompanied by Colonel James Stuart the present Earl of Galloway, and there met the Marquis, with whom she went in his carriage to Carlisle, thence he went to Netherby and she on to Edinburgh ; that she first went to M'Culloeh's hotel, and then to the lodgings taken in the names of Mr. and Mrs. Lawson ; that on the arri val of the Marquis he came to those lodgings, and lived there with deponent during the whole of his stay in Edinburgh as her husband, and that both were considered, looked upon, and treated as man and wife ; that on her re turn to London she went to her father's house because that in Baker-street had been given up, but the Marquis stated that she was to take another furnished house, which she should have done but for hearing of the proposed marriage of the Marquis ; that upon such news reaching her she became delirious, and had never from' that time married (although, observed the Attorney-General, their Lordships would remember that the contrary was sworn to by the Marquis of Blandford); that five years afterwards his Lord ship, upon his knees besought deponent's forgiveness, ad• mitting the fact of his marriage with her, when she agreed to meet him at the house of the Marquis's mother, the Duchess of Marlborough ; she, however, did not go, but wrote a note, declining to attend ; that for about eight or nine years after the marriage of the Marquis with the daughter of the late Earl of Galloway the said deponent received by quarterly payments 4001. a-year from Messrs. Coutts and Co. At that period the annuity fell into arrear, and depo nent was compelled, not only to accept the reduced sam of 200/. per annum, but also to give up many of the let ters of the Marquis, some concluding in the words " be lieve me, my dearest Susan, your affectionate husband, Blandford ;" that she never caused to be inserted in the Satirist, nor in any other paper, any article tending to vilify the said Marquis ; that within the last twelve months she was applied to by a near relation of the Marquis of Blandford respecting her claim to the title of Marchioness, and stating that an interview with the Duke of Marl borough's attorney would conduce much to her advantage ; that deponent declined pursuing any such step, nor would she ever have made this affidavit if it had not been for the contents of that produced by the Marquis of Blandford, by which premeditated immorality was imputed to her, and the true nature of the intercourse between them was suppressed. The Learned Counsel then proceeded to say that the next affidavit was from the mother, who set forth that she had carefully read the st a t emen t ma d e b y h er d aug h ter ( t h e affidavit just described), and that the contents were true in every particular, as f ar as concerned what had come under this deponent's knowledge ; and that she believed every other peat of the affidavit to be equally true. Now their Lordships would recollect that the mother was privy to all that took place before the marriage, was p the partiesresentattile ; marriage, and was aware of the manner in which afterwards li ve d i n Baker -street that she to the discovery th at t h e person who performedas also the pr ivy cere mony was not in holy orders, and to the subsequent arrange ment, that the Marquis should take her daTuthenterthteoreScot land, there to be acknowledged hi s w if e the affidavit of James Boaden, and Ann, his wife. Boaden stated, that somewhere about 1817 he was placed in No. 42, Manchester-street , by the proprieto r , to ta k e care of the i n house cot that it was let to a lady and gentelemplaonyeidvhtoo was led to believe, were Mrs. a n d C apta i n Law son, deponent o ;—that the dep o nen t w a s occas ionally m THE SUN, LONDON, FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 23, 1838. assist in the house ; and that after being employed for some time, he was informed that the gentleman called Captain Lawson was the Marquis of Blandford. In conclusion, deponent stated that the Marquis and Mrs. Lawson lived together as man and wife, and that he always understood that they .had been married. Ann Boaden deposed that she was engaged as charwoman, and always understood that they were man and wife ; that she often took in parcels addressed to " Capt sin Lawson," and others addressed to Mrs. Lawson ; and that she had often been asked whether Captain Lawson resided there. The last affidavit, continued the Attorney-General, was that of Mr. Gregory, against whom this application had been made. It stated that deponent, in June 1838, saw two paragraphs in a certain paper called the Age—that he read them, and found them to relate to differences between the Churchill family concerning the Woodstock election ; that he instituted in quiries as to the truth of those articles, and having found that they were incorrect, he determined to put the facts in a shape which he believed would more fully report the truth ; that he had therefore published the alleged libels, which he believed to be true, and that he was, in making the state ments complained of, wholly uninfluenced by any interested motive, or any feeling of il!-will or malice, either against the Marquis of Blandford or any member of his family. Such (observed the Attorney-General) were the affidavits he had to submit to their Lordships ; and he would venture to say, that the facts as stated in them, were such as to re quire no comment. It was to be deplored that such mat ters should be made the subject of discussion in any public place ; but the question here was, whether, after such affidavits, the Marquis was entitled to have the rule made absolute. Sir W. FOLLETT (in support of the rule) said, these li bels imputed to the present Marchioness of Blandford and the whole of her family, that they were illegitimate ; that Lord Sunderland had no right to the title of Duke of Marl borough, settled by Act of Parliament, nor any claim to the estates ; that his mother, although she had lived with the Marquis for twenty years as his wife, was not really such. He submitted, whatever might have been the con duct of the Marquis of Blandford, that justice would not be done to the family except the rule were made absolute. - - Lord Chief Justice DENMAN said, that this was an ap plication of a very serious and interesting nature, both to the parties more immediately concerned in the question, and as regarded the principles upon which the Court ought to administer justice in cases of criminal information. His Lordship said, he had not the least difficulty in stating that if the application had been made by the Marquis of Blandford alone, the rule would never hate been made ab solute ; for, upon his own statement of the facts of the case, a mcst reprehensible course of conduct had been pur sued towards a respectable young lady, it being very clear, upon her own account of the affair, and that given by her mother, that some contrivance had been resorted to—for (his Lordship added) he (lid not think himself justified in asserting that all those parties were perjured. But, it was not the Marquis of Blandford who was alone to be consi dered, but the Marchioness and her family. Notwithstand ing the conduct of the Marquis of Blandford, his Lord ship said, that Lady Blandford and the, issue of that mar riage were entitled to have the rule made absolute. Rule made absolute. BAIL COURT, Nov 22. GLOUCESTER CORPORATION. Mr. AUSTIN appliod to his Lordship for a rule, calling upon Dr. Edward Merry to show cause why a writ of quo warranta should not issue, commanding- him to show by what authority he held and exercised the office of Mayor and Alderman of Gloucester. The only question was whether the Corporation ought to elect a Mayor or Aldermen first. Mr. Justice LITTLDALE granted a rule to show cause ; and similar rules against Aldermen Hicks and Stanley. POOR-RATE. Mr. MONTAGUE SMITH applied to his Lordship for a rule, calling upon the Justices of Cornwall to show cause why a writ of mandamus should not issue, commanding them to hear an appeal of William Carlisle, Esq., against a poor-rate. The ground of the Magistrate's refusal was the insufficiency of the notice of appeal. Mr. Justice LITTLEDALE granted a rule to show cause. Mr. MANSELL applied for a rule, calling upon an at torney of this Court, whose name did not transpire, to answer the matters contained in certain affidavits, alleging that he had improperly signed the name of a Learned Barrister to a plea without his authority. The Learned Counsel said lie feared the offence imputed to the person against whom he applied was of too frequent occurrence, and must be put a stop to, or it would lead to the greatest irregularity and inconvenience. Mr. Justice LITTLEDALE granted a rule. EXCHEQUER COURT, Nov. 22. RICHARDSON V. CLARIDGE, KNT., AND OTHERS. This was an action against the defendants, as Directors of the Company formed for the purpose of carrying out the London and Brighton Railway without a tunnel, or Cundy's line, and was brought to recover the sum of 1311. 125., the balance due to the plaintiff for his services as surveyor. It was tried before Mr. Baron Gurney, when his Lordship directed a verdict for tile plaintiff, which was accordingly entered. In the early part of tile term Mr. Platt obtained a rule Nisi for a new trial. The Learned JUDGE now read over his notes of the trial. The Learned Judge considered that the plea was not made out, and the Jury, under his direction, found for tile plaintiff. Mr. BUTT appeared to support the verdict, and con tended that the ruling of the Learned Judge at Nisi Pries was right. Lord ABINGER—The Court are unanimously of opinion that the written paper refer red to is no receipt, but an agreement. Now, will the party agree to a stet processes ? Mr. Baron PARKE—That ought to be the case. The action should never have been brought. Mr. BUTT was not then prepared to decide ; but he would consider the matter. Mr. PLATT would at once consent. Lord ABINGER—Then the rule for a new trial is made absolute, unless the plaintiff agrees to a stet processes. PREROGATIVE COURT.—Nov. 22. MOORE AND WEEDON, ALSO GILL, v. GOODE. This was a suit respecting the validity of the will of the late Mrs. Mary Jones, who died in April, 1837. The Learned JUDGE delivered an elaborate judgment in the cause, pronouncing for the validity of the paper pro pounded. The Proctor for the parties opposing the will gave notice of an appeal. WINTLE AND WINTLE V. WINTLE. This is a suit respecting the validity of the will of the late Mr. Thomas Wintle, who died on the 13th of March, 1837. The arguments were commenced this day. We reserve our report till they are further advanced. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. HA 7'TON- GARDEN. - - A lad, about eighteen years of age, who was raggedly attired, being barefooted, and evidently in a starving state, was brought up by a mendicity officer, charget with begging. Mr. BENETT (to the prisoner)—You prefer begging to work, I am afraid. Prisoner—l do not ; but they could not expect me to work at stone-breaking without shoes. I only wanted to raise two or three shillings to take me to my native place, Manchester. Mr BF.NETT said, as he had never been brought before a Magistrate, he would merely commit him for seven days to the House of Correction, and if he felt disposed to be passed to his own parish, by applying to the visiting Ma gistrates, they would pass him. The prisoner thanked his Worship, and said it was all he wished to be passed. sault, and convicted the defendant in a penalty of 20s. and costs, which was paid. MARYLEBONE. YesterdayG.White, landlord of the Lord Tyrewley public house, High-street, Marylebone, appeared before Mr. Hos- KINS and Mr. RAWLINSON, to answer the charge of E. Brown, a boy about twelve years of age, residing with his parents at No. 1, Ward's-buildings, Woodstock-street, who deposed that on the 21st of October last, as he was passing along High-street, defendant, who was standing at his door, called him back, and asked him the price of some paunches which he (complainant) was carrying in his hand. Defen dant, without waiting for an answer, then took up a small gun, upon which he put a percussion• cap, and placing the weapon in the hands of a little child, his nephew, the latter pulled the trigger, when a portion of the cap entered the right eye of the complainant, who, notwithstanding he had been attended to by Mr. Alexander, had by the occurrence lost his sight. Defendant-4 know not how the eye became injured ; the gun is but a small one, a mere child's toy, and could not, I should imagine, have hurt anybody. The gun was here produced ; it was one of a very slight construction, and intended merely as a plaything for a child ; the lock was, however, perfect, and percussion caps had evidently been used. A satisfactory arrangement was subsequently entered into by the parties. A wretched looking man, who gave his name John Cur ran, was placed at the bar, charged with having stolen a pair of Wellington boots. The prisoner, who denied that he had ever had the boots in his possession, was fully committed for trial. MARLBOROUGH -STREET. Yesterday Thomas Pledger, a carter, in the employ of Messrs, Stanbury and Co., Talbot Inn, was charged with having defrauded Messrs. Miles and Edwards, of Oxford street, by altering a ticket. The prisoner declared the present was his only offence. He was fully committed. Thomas Smith was charged with having stolen a box, containing wearing apparel, belonging to a young lady named Hoff, governess in the family of the Marquis of Lon donderry. Thomas Fowler, a young man, in the employ of Messrs. Beck and Co., wine-merchants, Park-lane, sa id the pri soner took the box from the premises of his employer. He pursued and overtook the prisoner with the box in his pos session. The box had been forwarded to the Marquis's estate in Ireland. The prisoner pleaded distress. He could obtain no em ployment ; and, having failed to procure parish relief, he had stolen the box. He was committed for one month. QUEEN- SQ UARE. inn. Hudson, pot-boy at the Gun Tavern, Pimlico, was charged upon a warrant with assaulting Anne Mason, a servant at the above tavern. The complainant stated that on Tuesday last some alter cation took place, when he threw a quantity of knives and forks he had in his hands, retaining one knife, with which he made several thrusts at complainant's right side. By holding his wrists she prevented the defendant from suc ceeding in his object, and he then stabbed her in the right arm, The wound was severe, and had prevented her using her arm since. Defendant said co mplainant had cut herself with the knife through her own carelessness. Mr. OssaelsT treated the case as one of a maroon as- COMMERCIAL TREATIES. It has long been the fashion upon the Continent to laugh at English diplomacy. A great foreign statesman once said that we made war like lions, but that we made peace like lambs ; and certainly such a result as the treaty of Paris could not have been anticipated from a battle like Waterloo. The last few years, however, h..ve done some thing towards redeeming our national reputation in this particular, our treaties with the South American repub lics, with Holland, &c., being based on the soundest commercial principles, and prepared with a care and atten tion of which slender traces can be found in similar instru ments of former days. The recent treaties with Turkey and Austria are entitled to at least equal praise, and the negotiations out of which they spring do honour no less to the ambassadors by whom they were conducted than the Ministers by whom they were planned. Nor are the trea ties the only fruit of these negotiations : we must look beyond their text, if we wish to have any adequate idea of the commercial relations which it has been the object of the Ministers to create. The Austrian treaty, for in stance, is a treaty of reciprocity, with the addition of some very important provisions, giving English ships the navi gation and carrying trade direct from all countries to Aus trian ports, and essentially facilitating the passage of the Danube ; but far the most important feature of the trans action is the improved spirit of the commercial policy df Austria—the change that has been wrought in the opinion of the Government and mercantile classes of that immense empire —their growing disposition towards a commercial alliance with Great Britain. The tariff which preceded the treaty, and is its necessary companion, dealt a blow at the prohibition system under which Austria has so lone groaned that promises the fairest results. High as the duties on our produce still are, and they are obviously higher than it is for the interest of Austria to maintain them, British enterprise is already exploring the channels of trade thus opened or enlarged. As early as May and June last considerable sales of British produce were made at the Vienna fair, and large quantities of sugar, crushed and raw, have since been imported by the Elbe into Bohe mia. At Trieste the immediate effect of the tariff was, that nearly all the sugars held in bond were taken out for interior consumption, and much larger orders than have ever been known before were sent through British and American houses ; and many vessels loaded with sugars which had called for orders at Malta, Gibraltar, and even Falmouth and Cowes, have since been directed for Trieste, and large quantities of other commodities and merchandise have also since been sold from the bonded warehouses. The recent importations are rapidly increasing in proportion with those of past years. These importations are under stood to have materially improved the public revenue, and as the duties on our colonial produce were not protective but fiscal, no doubt can be entertained that the Austrian Government will soon profit by the experience which they are every day acquiring to issue a more liberal tariff. It is earnestly desired in the Milanese and other Italian pro vinces of Austria, where our colonial produce has always been in request and would find a ready sale. Indeed there is no country in which the impolicy of high duties for the purposes of revenue is more forcibly demonstrated. It has produced its usual fruits in a languishing commerce, a dis contented population, and a decreasing revenue. The pro tective duties on our manufactures stand on a different foot ing ; but they, too, have been raised to such an extravagant point as to be beneficial only to the smuggler, and to make the public call loudly for their modification. In Italy and along the Adriatic a large population complain of their interests being sacrificed to the groundless appfehensions of a few manufacture's in a distant district, with whom they have no connection or sympathy. They naturally wish to open the English market to their hemp, silks, and timber ; and besides, as all the exchangts and monied operations of their merchants depend on Vienna and Lon don, they feel that whatever increases the commerce with England will at the same time augment the prosperity of Austria and the trade and navigation of the Adriatic gene rally. Indeed, the existence of Trieste, as a great. entre pot and seaport, must depend on the national trade direct and indirect with England. But this is not all. The te duction of the Austrian tariff must re-act on the trade and tariffs of surrounding nations, on the states of the Prussian Commercial League, and the parts of Russia bordering on Galitzia, from which an enormous contraband trade is carried forward into Russi by the thousands of Jews scat tered along an extensive frontier. Russia will also find Italy a formidable rival in the English market in the supply of hemp ; for the Italians only require closer intercourse with England to procure the necessary capital for bringing the cultivation of the plant to perfection. These remarks apply to our trade with the parts of the Austrian dominions already partially accessible to us ; but, the treaty contemplates the opening of channels as yet en tirely new to British industry : we allude to the commerce which may be carried on with the interior of Germany and the Turkish Principalities, by means of the Black Sea and the Danube. The faculties of that mighty river have been called forth by the invention of steam navigation, and it has become a matter of the highest importance that all fiscal impediments to the use of its waters should be removed. This is done by tite - ti;;;; .-- and when we reflect upon the fair and productive districts through which the Danube flows, and the road which it affords for reaching even the northern st a t es o f E urope —if f ree access to them by the rivers of the Baltic should be forbidden by the narrow policy of their governments—we look with the most san guine expectation to the results of this great commercial arrangement. Of the measures which could be devised to deter the northern states from using, injuriously to this country, the powers they may possess by means of the Prussian C•)m mercial League, none could at present be more effective than this treaty with Austria. The heads of the Rhine and the Danube approach near each other by nature, and their artificial junction has been &ready accomplished. The consequence will come to be, that the northern states must consent to a fair and open trade by the Rhine, or submit to an illicit trade by its naw competitor—the Danube.—Morning Chronicle. MILITARY MORA LITY.-On Monday, an incor r:gible girl, named Eliza Baker, and three others, were brought before the Mayor and Magistrates, charged with being disorderly in the street on Sunday night. Two of them were sentenced to short periods of confinement, as rogues and vagabonds. The police stated that they be.. lieved the prisoners had just been turned out of the Can teen, in the Barrack-yard, and it was frequently the case that twenty or thirty of the most abandoned prostitutes were to be found drinking with the soldiers at that place on Sun day e vening.—Suiblk Chronicle. Yesterday morning Mr. Slaughter, who has been superintending the enlargement of a bridge on the Great Western Railway at West Drayton , had a most miraculous escape from being crushed to pieces, under the following cir cumstances :—The up-train from Maidenhead reached Drayton at the usual hour, and had again pro c eed e d on f or London, when Mr. Slaughter, who wanted to come to Pad dington, most imprudently ran after the train, and, in at tempting to jump up behind one of the c l ose carr i ages, w hich was next to the engn!e, his foot slipp e d, an d, h a d not the guard most providentially seized hi m b y t h e arm, he must have fallen in between the wheels, and been crushed to death. An inquest was held at Ilminst er on M on d ay, on the body of Charles Bevis, driver of the Defiance, London and Exeter coach, who was killed oa Friday last, by the upsetting . of the coach. After the production of a va riety of evidence, the Jury found a verdict o f A cc id enta l Death, and that the accident originated from the dense fog. Besides the coachman, whose death was instantane ous, Mr. Bawdwen, one of the passe ngers, di ed f r om his se vere injuries on Sunday. night last. M rs. Rayner, who wa was eseverely her journey r i n n e y h n r back, to day or two. O ne o f t h e h orses died the next mnrnmg, ; the oth ers were but little hurt. An inquest was held on the body of Mr. Bawdwen, aged forty. The Jury returned a verdict also of Accidental Death? THE AFGHAUN (From the forthcoming Nornbr of the Oriental Herald.) The following cony, )s som slight sk to tse s ral parties to whose characters and movements public atten tion is now so closely drawn. Shooja 00l Moolk is the grandson of Ahmed Shah, the great Dooraunee Chief, and bead of the Sooduzze clan, who first brought Afghanni4- taun under one supreme authority. H. , rat, Candahar, Cashmere, Mooltan, Cahul, Sirbind, Balk, and the Punjab, all submitted to his power. He was suc ceeded by Timour Shah, of very inferior capacity and energy, who soon lost half his father's conquests. At his death, Shah Zemaun was placed on the throne. Shah Mahmoud, Shooja 00l Moolk (our present protege), Hoo muyoon, Abbas, Ferooz, and other sons were all put aside, or provided for as governors of the several divisions of the country. Mahmoud, however, at Herat, went into open rebellion, and, after one or two reverses, at length succeeded in dethroning Shah Zemaun, whose eyes were put out. For this success he was mainly indebted to Futteh Khan, the head of the Baurukzye family, the most powerful and wealthy of the Afghaun clans. Shah Mah moud, in his turn, was ousted by Shoojah 00l Moolk, after various conflicts, in which he was sometimes victorious and again defeated. His victories he owed to Futteh Khan ; his defeats to himself principally. In consequence of Shooja neglecting to make Futteh Khan his friend, when that Chief had acknowledged him, another rebellion broke out, and, by a turn in the wheel of fortune, Mahmoud was rein stated, and Shooja fled. To the intrigues, the energy, the skill and courage of Futteh Khan was Mahmoud again indebted for his success ; but, with unexampled base ness and cruelty, he, instigated by his son Kamran, the present Chief of Herat, seized their benefactor, first de prived him of his sight, and in a few months, in open court, before their eyes, ordered the guards to cut the blind and helpless Vizier to pieces. This was in the year 1818. Futteh Khan's brothers, sizteen or seventeen in number, instantly flew to arms. Mahmoud escaped to Herat, where he died in 1829, and where his son Kamran, a cruel and perfidious wretch, now rules, supposing the Persians are not masters of it. There was another chance for Shooja ; for Mahomed Azeem Khan, the Governor of Cashmere, and eldest brother of Futteh Khan, was ready to have again placed him on the throne. But misfortunes bad not subdued his regal pride. He took offence at a friend of Azeem Khan's using a palankin in his company, and expressed himself strongly. The Baurukzye Chief was indignant, and withdrew his support, transferring it to a brother of Shooja's, Eyoob, who was willing to take the throne, as the puppet of his patron. During the life of Azeem Khan, Eyoob retained the no minal sovereignty, but at the death of the former, whose influence with his family had been great, the other brothers of Futteh Khan became divided, each aiming at inilepen dant power in their respective governments. Eyoob sought refuge with Runjeet Singh, in dread of Dost Mohamed ; and still resides, we believe, at Lahore. Dost Mohomed is the most energetic and talented of the surviving brothers of Futteh Khan, and has brought Cabul into a better con dition than it has been in for ages. Of course this is not the place to describe the loss of power and influence which the kingdom of Afghaunistaun has experienced by tha distrac tions, first of its legitimate rulers ; and, secondly, of the Baurukzye Chiefs. Province after province became the prey of Runjeet Singh, who took every advantage of the feuds that prevailed, now nominally assisting one branch, now another, but really drawing within his o•. n power most ad that was worth having. Nor need we digress on his treatment of Shooja 00l Moolk, whom he now professes a wish to re-establish on the throne of Cabul. Suffice it to say, that we have some doubts of this policy, pronounced by many to be so wise. Candahar and Peshawer, held by brothers of Dost Mahomed, will scarcely like the chance of seeing Shooja Moolk on the throne of Cabul, an we contemplate an union of all the hitherto discordant Chiefs to keep out a common enemy. The only support in Af ghaun, exclusive of individuals in the Sooduzae 'clan, that Shooja can expect, independent of foreign arms, is that of his nephew Kamran at Herat, but there are old and deep scores between them, which it will be difficult to settle. Upon the whole, we suspect we are not playing a goad card in putting forward an empty, vain, injudicious, and perhaps, what is of greater consequence, unlucky man like Shooja, who will be ill-received by the proud Doo raunees, when they see him approach with the baggage of Runjeet Singh, who threatened to dishonour his wife and daughters, and who subjected himself to the grossest per sonal insults ; and whom they detest, as the great and suc cessful enemy of their country and their creed. Yesterday afternoon, about five o'clock, a footman, who was driving his master's gig up Drury-lane, in attempt ing to turn down White Hart -street, being - then intoxicated, ran the vehicle against a girl named Mary Ann Dunn, who was standing at the corner, and knocked her down. The wheel passed over her foot, injuring her severely. The footman was taken to the station-house, and the chaise to the green-yard. Yesterday evening an inquest was held at Charing cross Hospital, before Mr. Higgs, on S. A. Odges, a child aged two years, who had died on Tuesday, from injuries sustained from fire. Mary Pearce examined—She lives at No. 1, Durham -street, Strand. Deceased lived with her grandmother, who is witness's lodger. On Wednesday week, as witness was going out, about nine o'clock at night, she heard deceased's cries, and proceeded to the first floor, where she lived. On opening the door she found deceased and her grandmother enveloped in flames. The child was standing at the foot of the bed, and the grand mother was lying on it. Witness for some time in vain attempted to awaken the grandmother. At last she got out of bed, and stood on the floor apparently in a stupor, her clothes burning all the while. In that state she rushed down stairs, and tell at witness's parlour door, which was scorched by the flames. The child and grandmother were conveyed to the hospital. In her (witness's) opinion the grandmother, at the time of the accident, was sober. She found a bundle of wce,d half burned beside the bed, and which she imagines that the child had lighted in the fire, and then placid there. The grandmother, who is only forty years of age, is a very heavy sleeper. Mr. Henry Hadwin, house-surgeon, stated that the child had been frightfully burned in the left arm, cheek, and scalp. Its tender age could not be it up against the injuries. The grandimther, who lies dangerously ill, when brought to the hospital, was sober, but stupified, the natural result of a col lapse following from the accident. An elderly female was received into Charing-cross Hospital yesterday morning, havit.g fractured her right thigh in several places by slipping down on the foot pave ment in the Strand. Prom the ,xtent of the injuries and her advanced age the patient lies in a precarious condition. About two o'clock yesterday afternoon, as a lime burner of the mime of Bell was attending his duty a a lime-kiln, Lewisham-road, he by some means was preci pitated into the burning furnace below. It was fortunate that some fresh lime-chalk had only recently been put on, or instantaneous death must have ensued. One of the boys assisting in serving the kiln arrived at the head with a fresh basket of stone, and, not seeing Bell, called to him as loud as he could, and at that instant a puff of wind cleared off the smoke below, when he discovered his master lying on his face over the burning lime-stone. He had the presence of mind to drag him from his perilous situation by his legs, and then gave the alarm. A medical gentleman, of the name of Proctor, fortunately was passing at the time, and every assistance was afforded by him and Mr. Hoare, sur geon, who shortly afterwards arrived, to ease the sufferings of the unfortunate man ; but, after the lapse of half an hour, he was removed to his house in an insensible state. At the Westminster Court of Requests yesterday a medical gentleman, named Buss, summoned a female servant for IL 2s. 6d., the amount of a bill for medicine and pro fessional attendance. It appeared that defendant called upon Mr. Buss one Sunday, and received advice and medi cine, and that afterwards he was sent for from the residence of the girl's master, Mr. Clint (he could not tell by whom), where he supplied defendant with more medicine. The different prescriptions were entered in Mr. Buss's books for " Mr. Clint's servant." Mr. Commissioner Heath said this was crediting Mr. Clint, and not defendant, and told the jury that, in his opinion, employers, when they called in medical men to attend their servants, were responsible for the debts so contracted. The jury dismissed the case, telling pluintiff that Mr. Clint was the party he had to look to. An inquest was held last night, in Gray's Inn Hall, on the body of C. L. Hurley, Esq., a solicitor of the Inn, who committed suicide by shooting himself through the head. Deceased had been in a low desponding state for some time, in consequence of some family affairs. Verdict— ' Temporary derangement." CRUELTY TO ANIMALS.—The Hon. Secretary and the officers of the Animals' Friend Society last week caused a man, named Montague to be committed for four teen days, by the Lord Mayor, for having beaten and dragged an overloaded horse about with ropes, by the other horses, till it was almost dead ; Meyers and Richards also to be fined 10s. each by the Lord Mayor; William Jameson, to be fined 55., by Mr. Broughton ; and James Prover 55., by Mr. Min s hull, for cruelty to their cattle I also John Stearham, 2/. 10s., by Daniel Ledsom, for dog. fighting at Birmingham. Several bull-baiting eases were brought forward last week by this Society, and the barba rous sport prevented at Ledgley, Darlington, West Brom wich, Lower Gornal, and Dudley, into all which places the officers of the Society followed the bullards, and saved the poor animals from their tiny. Two able sermons against cruelty to animals were preached at Birmingham an d West Bromwich by a Minister of Darlaston, and one by the Rev. Mr. Marsh (a member of the Society.) The for mer gave offence to the higher classes by his censurin ,, th e field-sports of the rich equally with the bull-baiting o f the poor.
